I have hit a dead end on my great great great grandfather.

MY Grandfather was Albert Edwards B Dec 2 1925 Died 2001 Indiana
who married Lola Gipson

Alberts Father was Fayte F Edwards B 1902 Died 1972 Indiana who married Elizabeth Gasper. I have heard tell Fayte was not his original name and that it may have been Lafayette of La follete.

Fayte Edwards obit list his father as being Felix Edwards and his mother being Dora Baire Edwards.

My family has told me a story that Felix Edwards Died after being run over by a wagon and that my grandfather (Albert) was taken back to Tennesse for the funeral and that he almost died during a wagon crossing of a mountain river when he was about 2 years old, placing Felix's death I assume with 2 to 3 years of 1925. I was also told that Felix may be buried on a mountain but for the life of me I can't find out it's correct spelling...it sounds like cinch mountain or sench mountain I assume in TN. any help would be appreciated.
